Q. There are a number of cases where things with the same name have different rules or characteristics in Codex Space Marines and Codex: Dark Angels, such as the different transport capacity for the Land Raider. There are also a number of new items of equipment in the Space Marines Codex that are not this one. Which version of the rules should I use, the latest version, or the one in Codex: Dark Angels?
A. Strictly, you should always use the rules from your own Codex, and this is the default solution you must use if you and your opponent can’t come up with a better one (you’ll find that this might be the case in tournaments, for example!). However, always keep in mind the foreword we have written to all of the Errata and FAQ documents, as well as ‘The Most Important Rule’ described on page 2 of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook, which states ‘… it is important to remember that the rules are just a framework to create an enjoyable game.
Winning at any cost is less important than making sure both players – not just the victor – have a good time.’ On this basis if an opponent asks you if it’s okay for them to use the latest version of the rules for a piece of equipment, or if they can use a new item from Codex: Space Marines in their own army, then you should say ‘Yes, of course you can!’ Please note that ‘The Most Important Rule’ cuts both ways, and because of this, if you feel that a piece of new equipment might spoil the game for your opponent by giving
your own army an unfair advantage, then you are honour-bound not to use it.
As you can see, the nature of the Most Important Rule means that it’s impossible to give a black and white answer to any question that may arise; instead you and your opponent need to discuss things and come up with the answer that makes both of you the happiest, keeping in mind that having a good time is more important than gaining a small in-game advantage. If for any reason you can’t do this, then simply revert to the default of using the rules from your own Codex.
Lange Rede, kurzer Sinn:
Kriegen DA die neuen Gegenstände aus dem neuen SM Codex?
Antwort: NEIN! Ihr habt nen eigenen Codex, spielt gefälligst danach.
So, jetzt kommt der Witz:
Außer dein Gegner willigt ein, die neuen Gegenstände zuzulassen indem ihr euch das über ne Houserule regelt.
In dem FAQ steht also explizit drin spielt wie ihr lustig seid (aka Most Important Rule). Das bringt nur Leuten, die DA auf Turnieren spielen wollen, rein gar nix.
Szenario:
DA: "Darf ich mit SM Ausrüstungsregeln spielen?"
SM: "Ne."
*DA wird kräftigst gebasht*
[size=5]Ja, übertrieben ich weiß^^[/size]
Na, herzlichen Dank für die tolle FAQ, die haben wir DA Spieler wirklich gebraucht. Dass ich mir was reinhousrulen kann weiß ich auch so.
So, bin mal weiter an meinen BT werken, bevor da auch noch ein "klärendes" FAQ kommt...
